Richard is testing out the force generated by a coil of wire that holds an electric current when it is immersed in a magnetic field. He would like to find out which direction the coil of wire will move when the magnetic field begins. What rule or law could he use to find this out?
Explanation
Answer: C - The left-hand rule is used to find the direction of force that is produced when a wire carrying a current is immersed in a magnetic field. In the left-hand rule, the thumb, index finger, and middle finger are perpendicular, with the thumb representing force, the index finger representing the direction of magnetic field, and the middle finger representing the direction of the current.
